Could Mancini Be Robert-go By The End Of The Season?

The Carlos Tevez saga took another twist when Roberto Mancini was prevented from talking about the player at a Press Conference while reports suggested that he may not have the full backing of the squad and Hills make him 5/2 to fail to see out the season with City. He is 33/1 to be the first Premier League manager to leave his club.

The furore surrounding Carlos Tevez and his refusal to play has still not died down. Former club West Ham have enquired about the availability of the controversial striker and William Hill make the Hammers 16/1 to be Tevez’s next club. Juventus are the 11/4 favourites. Tevez is 4/9 to never start a Premier League match with Manchester City again.

“This Tevez situation appears to be a saga that will run and run and the longer it does so, the more sides that will register an interest in the want-away player,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “The latest side to do so are West Ham, but they are considered relative outsiders at the moment.”

Mancini to be at Manchester City on the last day of the season: 2/7 yes; 5/2 no

Tevez Next Club: 11/4 Juventus; 4/1 Corinthians; 6/1 AC Milan; 6/1 Inter Milan; 7/1 Real Madrid; 8/1 PSG; 10/1 Boca Juniors; 12/1 Napoli; 16/1 Chelsea; 16/1 West Ham; 20/1 Arsenal; 20/1 Barcelona…(others on request, loan deals count)

Tevez to start a Premier League game for Manchester City again: 13/8 yes; 4/9 no

1st Premier League Manager to leave his job: 4/7 Steve Kean; 7/2 Steve Bruce; 8/1 David Moyes; 10/1 Arsene Wenger; 12/1 Neil Warnock; 14/1 Alan Pardew; 16/1 BAR

33/1 Mancini to be first Premier League manager to leave his job

Wenger 3rd Fav For Chop + Weekend Prem Specials

********************************William Hill WEEEKEND PREMIER LEAGUE SPECIALS************************************************

ARSENE WENGER THIRD FAVOURITE FOR CHOP

Following the takeover at QPR, William Hill have lengthened their odds about Neil Warnock being the next Premier League manager to leave his club from Even money favourite to 11/4 second favourite. ‘The takeover appears to have strengthened Warnock’s position in the short term, but many more results like their opening 0-4 home defeat would see his odds plunge again’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe. Hills now make Blackburn boss, Stee Kean, their 7/4 favourite to be the next boss out but after further support for Arsene Wenger to be the next boss to go, incuding one of £200 at 9/1, he has been cut to 6/1 joint third favourite. ‘Arsene was a 33/1 shot pre-season to be the first Premier League boss to go but has been steadily backed to the point where he is now by some distance our worst potential result in this market’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
*Hills now offer 10/3 that Wenger will be gone before the end of the season, 1/5 that he is still in place.
* Arsenal points in next two games (v Liverpool/Man U): 8/1 six; 7/2 four; 2/1 three; 9/4 one; 7/2 none

Premier League: Brotherly Love Or Sibling Rivalry?

John Arne Riise joined Fulham early on Wednesday and joined his brother, Bjorn Helge. The Riises became the fourth set of brothers playing together in the Premier League and Hills make them 7/2 to start the most games between them. The Toure brothers lead the market at 5/6 while the da Silva brothers are 2/1. The Ameobis are the 12/1 outsiders.

“With four sets of siblings strutting their stuff in the Premier League, it looks like the Toures will rule the roost much like the Klitschkos while the Ameobis may as well be renamed the Chuckle brothers,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

The first manager to go market has been particularly volatile during this close season with gambles seeing Neil Warnock and Sir Alex Ferguson’s odds slashed from 16/1 and 40/1 respectively to 11/4 and 12/1.

“We have so far seen two heavy gambles on both Warnock and Sir Alex to be the first to leave their jobs and now the dust has settled, the QPR boss is the favourite to go and appears to be under pressure even though no ball has been kicked in anger this season,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Samir Nasri started Arsenal’s first pre-season match of the season on the bench and William Hill offer 4/6 that he has left the club by the first game of the 2011/12 season. He is 11/10 to stay at the Emirates. Should Samir Nasri leave, it looks as though Manchester City will be his likely destination, offered at 8/13, while Manchester United are 6/5. His team mate, Cesc Fabregas is 2/5 to have left the club by the end of the Summer transfer window.

Premier League Brothers:

Most Combined Starts: 5/6 Toures; 2/1 Da Silvas; 5/2 Riise; 8/1 Ameobis

Most Combined Cards: 6/4 Toures; 13/8 Da Silvas; 5/2 Riise; 8/1 Ameobis

First Premier League Manager to leave: 11/4 Neil Warnock; 7/2 Steve Kean; 9/1 Mick McCarthy; 10/1 Steve Bruce; 10/1 Harry Redknapp; 12/1 Owen Coyle; 12/1 Roberto Martinez; 12/1 Sir Alex Ferguson; 16/1 David Moyes; 16/1 Alan Pardew; 20/1 Brendan Rodgers; 20/1 Alex McLeish; 33/1 Paul Lambert; 33/1 Arsene Wenger; 33/1 Martin Jol; 40/1 Roy Hodgson; 66/1 Andre Villas Boas; 66/1 Kenny Dalglish; 66/1 Tony Pulis; 100/1 No Manager to leave

Samir Nasri To Be Gone By First Game Of Next Season: 4/6 yes; 11/10 no

Cesc Fabregas to be gone by the end of the Transfer Window: 2/5 yes; 7/4 no

Managerial Madness Starts Early…fabregas Latest

The managerial merry-go-round was in overdrive earlier today when Neil Warnock was backed in from 9/2 to 9/4 to be the first Premier League manager to leave at William Hill. The QPR boss was the subject of internet speculation which saw his odds tumble as punters piled in with countless three figure bets although the gamble subsided as a statement was released from the club stating Warnock was going nowhere. Despite the assurances over his short term future, Warnock remains the favourite to go first followed by Steve Kean at 7/2 and Mick McCarthy at 9/1.

“It appears that Warnock is safe for now, but there is seldom smoke without fire and we expect that this is a gamble that would only need the slightest spark to reignite again,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Hills First Premier League Manager To Go: 11/4 Neil Warnock; 7/2 Steve Kean; 9/1 Mick McCarthy; 10/1 Steve Bruce; 10/1 Owen Coyle; 10/1 Roberto Martinez; 10/1 David Moyes; 12/1 Roberto Mancini; 12/1 Sir Alex Ferguson; 14/1 Harry Redknapp; 16/1 Alan Pardew; 20/1 Brendan Rodgers; 20/1 Alex McLeish…others on request

De Gea To Fill Van Der Sar’s Big Boots

In his final season at Old Trafford Edwin Van Der Sar conceded 31 goals in 33 Premier League games and William Hill are offering 1/5 that his replacement, David de Gea concedes 31 or fewer goals in his first 33 Premier League matches. He is 10/3 to concede more.

“Edwin van der Sar has cast a huge shadow over Old Trafford, much like Peter Schmeichel did but the odds suggest that de Gea will fill his boots,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Cesc Fabregas looks all but certain to leave Arsenal, with Hills slashing his odds to go once more from 2/7 to 1/7 while another midfielder seemingly on the move, is Charlie Adam, who is offered at 1/8 to leave Blackpool for Liverpool. He is 8/1 to go to either Aston Villa or Tottenham and 12/1 to join Manchester United.

“If Charlie does not go to Liverpool, we won’t Adam and Eve it!!!”

You Bet Sam Is The Man For West Ham!

William Hill have slashed the price of Sam Allardyce being named as the next West Ham manager from 5/2 to 4/9, following a one sided gamble today. “It has been 100% Allardyce all day, which would suggest he has been seen out and about with the West Ham owners,” said Hill’s spokesman Rupert Adams.

William Hill Next Permanent West Ham Manager: 4/9 Sam Allardyce, 5/1 Dave Jones, 7/1 Billy Davis, 9/1 Martin O’Neill, 10/1 Chris Houghton, 12/1 Neil Warnock, 14/1 Alex McLeish, 16/1 Ian Holloway, 20/1 Malky MacKay, 20/1 Alan Curbishly

Heavy Gamble On Bluebird To Become A Hammer

Dave Jones has been cut from 10/1 to 6/4 to be the new West Ham boss, by William Hill. He has been the subject of a massive gamble over the space of an hour and has pushed other contenders such as Chris Hughton and Sam Allardyce out to 10/3 and 4/1 respectively.

“Dave Jones has gone from relative outsider to frontrunner in the space of 20 minutes and the gamble would suggest that he is, as reported, the number one target to replace Avram Grant,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.
